The purpose of this office meeting is to review the details of the child who wandered away from the home which occurred on 2/14/2023 and discussed care and supervision, physical plant and reporting requirements.
LPM Bell explained to licensee that letters of deficiencies cleared will be provided during today's visit, clearing the four citations which were issued on 05/25/23.
Licensee stated that she has 4 children currently enrolled between 5 months and 3 years old. Licensee's plan for care and supervision is to only sit with them during group activities, other than that, to be constantly walking and supervising. Licensee has continued to use a Velcro strap on the gate for added security. Licensee further stated that she has removed any items that are in disrepair or can potentially be a hazard to children to ensure safety moving forward.
Per licensee, she is aware that she is to report any unusual incidents to the Department within 24 hours by phone and fax andr email an unusual incident report to the office within 7 days. LPM Bell explained to licensee that an unusual incident is considered anything that does not happen regularly.
LPM Bell recommended that licensee is to watch the following five videos, which can be found at CCLD.childcarevideos.org: "Reporting Requirements," "Civil Penalty," "Supervising Children in Child Care," "Children's Personal Rights in Child Care," and "Locks and Accessibility Requirements in Child Care." |
